KAY McABEE

World-renown organist and musician, Kay McAbee is truly a legend in his
own time and an icon at the Rialto Theatre in Joliet and the Barton Grande
Pipe Organ. A native of the Joliet area, Kay gave music lessons to many
of today's top organists from this region. Kay will always be associated
with the Barton Grande, having performed on this instrument many times in
the past 40 years. Kay made a recording of the Barton in the 1960's.

Kay currently resides in Albuquerque, New Mexico and travels weekly to
Las Vegas where he is the staff organist at the Maloof residence, the new
home of the former Chicago Stadium organ.
